Boston Support Office Interpretation and Education: Learning opportunities abound through national parks. You can follow the footsteps of revolutionary leaders from our past or explore diverse natural areas found in the Northeast. Whether you are a teacher, scholar, or park enthusiast, there is something for everyone - interactive programs for students, training opportunities for teachers, access to scientific and historical research, program for families and recreational adventures for all. You don't have to drive through the park gate to take advantage of this exciting menu. Publications, materials, kit and the Internet bring the park experience right to your door. The job of creating and sustaining and education program has never been more complex. New audiences, changing laws, emerging technologies and even shifting philosophies present challenges and opportunities. The professionals in Education and Interpretation are available to provide assistance throughout the Northeast Region in sorting out the Interpretation/Education options available to all parks managers. An educated public is perhaps our brightest hope for protecting and preserving natural and cultural resources for the future. Key Services:
